Cost: 260 RMB, 220 RMB for members includes all entrance tickets.
One of the first official visits by Xi Jinping and the new Standing Committee when they took office in 2012 was the “Road to Rejuvenation,” the flagship exhibit at the National Museum. The Road to Rejuvenation presents the origin story of Modern China from the perspective of China’s leaders and the Communist Party. We will tour the exhibition and look at China’s modern history while discussing how and why this narrative has been created, deployed, and perpetuated in China today.
Spaces for this walk are limited and registration is required. Details about the walk including meeting points and payment information will be sent by email as part of your your registration confirmation.
